## Our Social Contract

Inspired by [Debian](https://lists.debian.org/debian-announce/1997/msg00017.html), [Parabola](https://wiki.parabola.nu/Parabola_Social_Contract), [Hyperbola](https://wiki.hyperbola.info/doku.php?id=en:main:social_contract), and the main others.<br>
EPuters has decided to write and state our social contract to users.

- **The EPuters Project is free/libre software**:<br>
With everything we do, we must always utilize 100% free/libre software whenever possible.*
- **We Won't Hide Problems**:<br>
Every piece of code utilized by us is published with issue trackers. If there is an issue with something, the issue will be released to the public.*
- **Give back to the Free Software Community**:<br>
EPuters will work to merge bug fixes upstream and help the longetivity of not only its own systems but everyone in the free/libre community.

\* Due to cost barriers the EPuters servers run on virtual machines hosted on non-free machines.<br>
We plan to update this segment once we are able to host our projects using only free software.

\* Security issues will be published once the EPuters team is able to properly patch software.
